We use coconut water in place of almond milk and mix and match whatever fresh or frozen fruits we have on hand. Usually it's some combination of bananas, berries, pineapple and grapes. (Or mango if we're feeling fancy!) You can pack a lot more spinach into it, without it tasting too spinach-y, when you add green grapes. I have a recipe for a green smoothie that uses broccoli... I will post it when I find it!

I just mix greeens or veggies I have like kale, spinach, cucumber, celery, carrots in a juicer (not all) a combination of a few. I make the juice and then just add about a quarter cup to stonyfield farm yougurt, ice, a 1/2 to a whole banana, and what ever fruit I have in my fridge plums, nectarines, strawberries. I save the rest of the green juice in a jar for another smoothie the next day. Mine taste different everytime. Sometimes good. Sometimes I choke it down and tell myself it is good for me. I really only make them in summer when produce is fresher and can find fresh veggie and fruit stands. It is fun experimenting. Only I never write down what I did. In winter I worry about all the pesticides on grocery store produce so I eat far less of it. But I wlll start up with my juicing come spring. Have fun don't be afraid to break free of a recipee.
